F-104A (Early) Backdate Set
Preview

Hypersonic Models, 1/48 scale

Hypersonic Models has announced a new release available soon from Hypersonic Models' website:

Here are some preview images of my next release (in about a week's time, depends on when I'll receive the printed instructions and can start packaging).

It's an F-104A (Early) Backdate Set for Kinetic's F-104A/C kit.

The main conversion item is the C-1 downward firing ejection seat, but the set goes far beyond just the seat.

Except for the main cockpit tub, everything is new in the cockpit and it extends to the canopy as well, with the main part being a replacement too.

A new instrument panel and three different types of coamings are included.

On top of that there are airframe parts like the lower fuselage insert part, fuselage doublers and a new engine vent panel which had already been included in my previously released F-104A (Late) set.

Retail price will be ¥4500.

Thanks to Hypersonic Models for the images and information
